Woman - Rick Springfield

But I don’t know if I mean it

I don’t know if I just pretend

I make up my mind the feeling’s dead

But who’s fooling who inside my head

And I know that I had the feeling

That something’s wrong

It’s been out of my control for much too long

I always seem to want to fall in love

With the iron hand inside the velvet glove

But it feels too good

Oh Woman, I need you (do you want me to beg)

I lost my pride long ago (and you know it)

Oh Woman, I love you (when you take me to bed)

My private beatings never show

Woman when you make love you close your eyes

(And I get any closer to the mystery)

Oh Woman, I need you (you must be the one)

Don’t cut me free 'cause I can’t be myself

The voices say (stand up), I wish that I could

I feel the nail being driven in

But there’s something about it that feels so good

You’re always the talk of the town

And the town won’t shut up talking

'Til the king is crowned

And I know that I know you like it, hard and tough

There’s a lot of heat and spark, but that’s not enough

The actor wants to skip the final scene

Tho' the keys are in the getaway machine

I just can’t go

Oh Woman, I need you (do you want me to beg)

I lost my pride long ago (and you know it)

Oh Woman, I love you (when you take me to bed)

My private beatings never show

Woman when you make love you close your eyes

(And I get any closer to the mystery)

Oh Woman, I need you (you must be the one)

Don’t cut me free 'cause I can’t be myself

And I know that I get the feeling

There’s something wrong

It’s been out of my control for much too long

I always seem to want to fall in love

With the iron hand inside the velvet glove

But it feels so good

Oh Woman, I need you (do you want me to beg)

I lost my pride long ago (and you know it)

Oh Woman, I love you (when you take me to bed)

My private beatings never show

Woman when you make love you close your eyes

(And I get any closer to the mystery)

Oh Woman, I need you (you must be the one)

Don’t cut me free 'cause I can’t be myself
